A wife had supported her husband as he struggled to sobriety from cocaine addiction. Two years had passed and she was grateful that he had not relapsed. His behavior began to change, however, becoming consistent with his behavior when he was using cocaine. She asked him pointedly if he had relapsed, and he vehemently denied it. The wife did not know whether she could go through another battle with her husband’s addictions, and she had to know whether he was lying. The wife brought ICS her husband’s computer keyboard from home in order to perform a forensic surface drug test. In the laboratory, the investigator utilized the biosensors needed to perform the surface test.

Conclusion:

Within minutes it was confirmed that the keyboard tested positive for cocaine. A sigh of sadness escaped the wife’s mouth as she tried to imagine the next steps for her and her husband. However, she was grateful to know that she had the truth and she was able to act on that knowledge that her husband once again needed help.
